he he, i laughed so hard when i read the part about the mullet - ella also had 'one hell of a mullet' at 18 months, too :) i just couldn't bring myself to cut her baby curls...until one really hot summer day when i thought 'i'll just trim it, ever so slightly' - i made a huge mess of it and ended up taking her to the salon across the street where ALL of her baby curls were chopped off and styled into a trendy bob. she's been like a little grown-up ever since. i say keep the mullet for as long as you can, it's too cute :)
